Don't Miss the "Leadership for a Better World" Forum

There's a new addition to the agenda of Leadership for a Better World: Creating Social Value through Innovation, an inaugural forum held on Friday, September 25 in Washington, D.C.

Communicating Social Change, an afternoon session presented by Shannon Hebert, Vice President of Integrated Marketing at National Geographic Global Media, will examine core strategies to communicate a company’s social responsibility practices and activities. The session will showcase recent National Geographic case studies and how these partnerships inspired consumers and successfully communicated social change.

Shannon joins a truly global line-up of speakers that includes Seth Goldman, President & TeaEO of Honest Tea; Alan Webber, founder of Fast Company magazine; Paul C. Light, author of The Search for Social Entrepreneurship; and Rosabeth Moss Kanter of the Harvard Business School.

Register today to reserve your chance to participate in this exciting event! The first 150 registrants will receive a free copy of either Alan Webber’s or Rosabeth Moss Kanter’s new books. In addition, all attendees will receive 25 percent off a one-year subscription to Beyond Profit magazine, a media partner for the event.

We hope you will join us to explore how your organization can implement socially responsible strategies and engage more deeply in values-based leadership.
